Indian stock markets scripted history on Thursday as there were many firsts on this week. The last trading session of this week shortened by holiday on Thursday on account of Dussehra.  In a first, the Nifty breached 18,300 and created a record high of 18,350.75.

All major indices saw business at record levels. Interestingly, the Indian markets marched forward despite selling pressure from FIIs and DIIs in the three of the four days trade. Besides, domestic markets also braved volatile and sluggish global cues and witnessed buying action in majority of the indices.  

The Tata Motors-TPG deal fueled action in the Tata Group shares and the auto sector in general, while TCS not meeting street's expectations triggered profit booking in IT shares. However, the action returned in IT stocks on the back of relatively good September quarter for Wipro Limited and Infosys, as the former shares became top gainer at the market open, while it closed second only after Adani Ports on the Nifty50 index on Thursday's closing.

However, Tata Motors shifted to top losers' corner of the index with over 2% loss on the last trading day of the week.  

Besides, action was also seen in power and banking shares due to coal shortage and Tata-Air India deal.
